Intent to Award a Sole Source Contract to Modula

The Vermont Air National Guard (VTANG) has a requirement for a contractor to provide all parts, management, supervision, and labor to perform triage repair, retrofit, and level 1 preventative maintenance of a Modula Vertical Lift Machine. The work includes replacing the DICO touchscreen, retrofitting to a Bonfiglioli Inverter, replacing extractor POLYZENE supports, and replacing other components. The NAICS code for this requirement is 811310, and the small business size standard is $13.0M. The VTANG intends to award a single award firm fixed price to Modula, Inc. • The contractor will be responsible for providing all necessary parts and labor to perform the required work. • The contractor must be certified to service Modula equipment to the extent required. • The government has determined that Modula is the sole manufacturer and servicing company for this complex equipment. • The contract will be awarded as a sole source contract due to the lack of qualified contractors that can service this equipment.
